Tapping into EAI

With an eye toward the blossoming enterprise application integration (EAI) market, Peregrine Systems has launched its Business Integration Suite, a comprehensive software and services package said to provide the full range of critical components of EAI and business process integration along with B2B capabilities.

Peregrine says the offering includes a wide variety of integration adapters for use with back-end systems (i.e., ERP applications, databases, mainframes), standards-based mechanisms for data transport between systems and trading partners, system monitoring capabilities, advanced data transformation and an intuitive application/workflow development environment. The company further says the suite also provides a data transformation engine that enables real-time, any-to-any conversions between disparate data formats.

The offering is available immediately either as a hosted offering or through traditional software licensing.
